If you’re a fan of the Silver Surfer, you’re going to love the new Sideshow Collectables Maquette based onStan LeeandJack Kirby’s creation from the mid-1960s. As you’ll see in the pictures below, artistDaniel Bel Hugelyhas done a fantastic job bringing the popular character to life, and it looks like he’s floating in front of you. I got to see the maquette up close at a press preview for Sideshow Con 2020 and it was easily one of the best things I saw on display....

One of the very first things I remember reading aboutTales from the Loopwhen news first broke that a series adaptation was in the works was how it could be Amazon’s answer toStranger Things. At the time, it made some sense connecting the dots given the fact thatTales from the Loophas sci-fi elements, an 80s tinge, and there’s also a popular tabletop role-playing game based onSimon Stålenhag’s original artwork. But now that I’ve seen Episodes 1, 4 and 6, it’s abundantly clear thatTales from the Loopis very much its own, highly unique thing....

The “Infinity Castle Arc” concludes the epic saga,showcasing Tanjiro Kamado(Natsuki Hanae) and the Demon Slayer Corps' final battle with the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji (Toshihiko Seki).Demon Slayer’sSeason 4 finale, “Hashira Unite,” sets the stage for the grand ending of the anime series....

Two creepy television families.The Addams Family, a wealthy, morbid fictional family created by cartoonistCharles Addamsin 1938 and introduced to television in 1964.The Munsters, a sitcom about a working class family of monsters in the classic Universal vein, also airing in 1964. Two sitcoms, inextricably linked by their premises and their parallel TV airings, and now thefamilies of fright both have upcoming projects on Netflix. It’s a battle that has been waged for almost 50 years, with no discernible winner....

The Flashis having a bumpy run to the big screen. While the character previously made his big screen debut earlier this year inBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justiceand had a small cameo inSuicide Squad, his solo film has been running into difficulties. Back in April, screenwriterSeth Grahame-Smith, who was set to make his feature directing debut on the film,parted ways with the project. Then in June, Warner Bros. hiredDopedirectorRick Famuyiwato helm the picture, which will starEzra Milleras the titular hero....

Between theCoen brothers’The Ballad of Buster ScruggsandAlfonso Cuarón’sRoma, Netflix has become a bit of a director’s playground these days. But that doesn’t mean you’re always stuck watching these films on a laptop screen. (Not that there’s anythingwrong with that.) WithRomaalready in the middle of a theatrical run,THRreports that the streaming service’s next high-profile original film,Martin Scorsese’sThe Irishman, is also due for a big-screen run before it hits Netflix. That is, according to starRobert De Niro, who noted at the Marrakech Film Festival that Netflix would handleThe Irishman"the way it should be", which doesn’t sound at all like a threat....

20th Century Studios gifted us with even more new images from the upcoming featureThe New Mutants. Directed byJosh Boone, this long-in-the-works adaptation of the popularX-MenMarvel Comics arc starsAnya Taylor-Joy,Maisie Williams,Charlie Heaton,Blu Hunt, andHenry Zagaas a group of young mutants who must fight their way out of a secret facility trying to manipulate their abilities. But, before we can watch all of the action go down, we should probably spend some time familiarizing ourselves with the titular new mutants....

The first season of USA’sThe Sinnerput a spin on the typical “whodunnit” and instead focused on the “whydunnit.” Viewers saw the crime happen from the start, so the mystery was not in who committed that sudden horror, but rather, what drove its innocuous female perpetrator (played byJessica Biel, who is also an EP) to what seemed like such a random act of violence. In Season 2 — which picks up with an almost entirely new cast and a new story — that basic setup remains the same....

Star Warsin myShōgun? It’s more likely than you think. No, Lord Toranaga (Hiroyuki Sanada) and Lord Ishido (Takehiro Hira) aren’t going tosolve their civil warwith a lightsaber fight (as anachronistically awesome as that would be). Instead, like every part of the meticulously assembledShōgun, itsStar Wars-inspired detail is innocuous yet essential, and intentionally chosen by showrunnerJustin Marksand co-creatorRachel Kondo, who happen to beStar Warsdevotees. Similarly engagedShōgunfans have spent most of their time seeing the reference toGeorge Lucas’s galaxy far, far awaywithout realizing that an extra layer exists, although some eagle-eyed viewers might have connected the dots....

Filmmakers reflecting on their own childhood and early days of falling in love with cinema has been one of the more unexpected trends of the last handful of years. This spiritual subgenre includes the likes ofRoma,Belfast,The Fabelmans, andArmageddon Time, and seems to have sprouted from our modern inclination to reflect on ourselves and our past in a social media climate. Additionally, the pandemic and early days of quarantine confined us—ultimately forcing everyone to ruminate deeply about their existence....

Netflix recently unveiled a pretty star-studded original film calledTriple Frontier, but the project has actually been in the works for nearly a decade and has gone through various A-list permutations over the years. As it stands now, the film is directed and co-written byJ.C. Chandor(A Most Violent Year) and starsOscar Isaacas a private military advisor who enlists his former special forces buddies to travel down to Columbia and steal millions of dollars from a drug lord....
